From the about section of the ActBlue page I've created:
Despite the self-important screechings of the traditional media, the hurt feelings and ruffled feathers of the primary season are not insurmoutable. Hillary and Bill Clinton have worked to unite the Democratic Party with their rousing convention speeches and gracious support of Obama during the delegate voting process. Now it's time to reward Hillary for being a team player by helping pay off her campaign debt.
And while we're at it, lets give Barack Obama, who was equally gracious in victory, the funds he needs to expand the map, create coattails for down-ballot races, and end the conservative governing that thinks that all social issues are due to gays, Atheists, Hollywood, and working women, that the way to solve all economic ills are tax cuts for the super rich, and that war will solve all of America's international problems.
We've noted with glee that Obama is advertising in states like Alaska and Georgia and opening campaign offices in states like Indiana. And this strategy of expanding the map and out-organizing McCain will yield results in down ballot-races as well. An Obama get out the vote operation in Georgia helps Senate candidate Jim Martin. Organizing in Alaska helps make the words "Senator Begich" or "Representative Berkowitz" possible.
